17 Tucson area residents indicted in Internet fraud case

Laurie Lane writes in The Arizona Daily Star:

Seventeen Tucson-area residents were indicted on charges of using stolen credit and debit card numbers and other personal information to steal money from ATMs as part of an international computer-based theft ring.

The group used card numbers and other financial information supplied by people in foreign countries to make counterfeit bank or credit cards and then wired back half the stolen money as payment, officials said in announcing the federal indictments unsealed Monday.
